We are Canadian atheists who are concerned about rights, freedoms, and the general well-being of atheists in Canada and internationally. Our desire is for peaceful advocacy, and we are happy to participate in public discourse as a means of engaging in the free exchange of ideas.

While some atheists are more outspoken than others (some are also anti-theistic), these are individual traits that are incidental to atheism, hence there is no specific expectation to conform to any particular standards of behaviour. And one of the most important reasons for this is that there exists no "atheist doctrine," and atheism is not in any way dogmatic.
